Professor (Forensic Psychology)

The University of Bolton is a “Teaching Intensive, Research Informed” higher education institution whose distinctive high quality, student-focussed, undergraduate and postgraduate programmes attract students from all over the world.

Our staff are at the heart of everything we do: they are highly qualified and experienced in their fields, supporting their teaching practice by carrying out quality research and engaging in continuous professional development. Staff pride themselves on being outstanding professionals that provide excellent learning, teaching and applied research and support in the provision of custom-designed, industry led courses in numerous subject areas.

The School of Psychology at the University of Bolton seeks to appoint a Professor in Forensic Psychology. The post-holder will be a highly motivated senior academic and HCPC-registered practitioner, who will lead our new MSc Forensic Psychology and supervise the dissertations of forensic psychology MSc and PhD students. This is a fractional post (0.5FTE), possibly more appealing to a practitioner psychologist who is a strong researcher and wishes to combine practice, with teaching and research.

The successful candidate will have to have an excellent track record in research and experience in academic programme leadership.
